Harley + Georgia (Sacred Heart Church, Shangri-La Mactan, Cebu)
Although both based in London, Harley and Georgia decided to tie the knot last December at Georgia’s hometown in Cebu. The day started with preps at the Marco Polo Hotel in Lahug which was nearer the Sacred Heart Church. Twenty years ago, my family temporarily moved to Lahug due to my father’s work. I still stayed in Manila for school but visited my family as much as I could. It was fun looking for familiar places and seeing how some have changed and how some have stayed the same.
Harley and Georgia’s invite was based on a painting done by one of their cousins. It looked good invite-size but I bet it’ll be infinitely better as a full-sized painting on their wall.
(EDIT: It was Harley’s cousin May Ann Licudine who did their invites. Love her artworks! Check out her blog -Mimi)
Georgia was just radiant in her Jun Escario wedding gown…
…while Harley was dapper in his white suit.
The Sacred Heart Church is one of the popular churches for weddings in Cebu.
The original plan was to have an outdoor garden-themed reception but the dark clouds in the morning forced them to move the reception at the Marquee, which I think turned out better since it was so humid and the final set-up was just gorgeous.
This was shot through Mimi’s point of view. Can you find me? LOL
And here’s what I got from that angle:
Harley & Georgia, here’s to everlasting bliss! π

great ideas of shots! kaya lang most of the pictures, obvious na dumaan sa photoshop. mas nakakabilib kung natural ang mga shots π
